When 20-something Chinese filmmaker Nanfu Wang (Spirit Award-winner for Hooligan Sparrow) stays at a hostel in Florida on a break from her studies at New York University, she encounters Dylan, a blonde, charismatic, 22-year-old drifter who has left a comfortable home and loving family in Utah for a life of intentional homelessness and unfettered adventure. Fascinated by his choice and rejection of society’s rules, in I Am Another You Nanfu follows Dylan with her camera, living with him on the streets. But what begins as a portrait of a uniquely American quest for freedom reveals some surprising twists and turns in what also becomes a haunting and unforgettable story of family.

It looks interesting but also feels like a wild goose chase trying to actually find it. I saw something that said it would be streaming in January.. last January. After a rather in depth hunt the most I've found is a 3 minute clip. http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/videos/another-kind-freedom-strangers-clip/

I saw it a few months ago on PBS or whatever the local version is in Arizona. I got lucky but that's all I watch and discovery, when I do. It was so well made. The narrator would meet up with the guy over the course of a couple years and hang out with him, and it really got into the psyche of living one day at a time, with pretty intense insights sometimes, as a traveler non-conformist, blacksheep, etc.
